SUMMARY:Author’s Talk: Red Bishop
DESCRIPTION:Besides the US\, perhaps no country is more important to the world’s economy and geopolitics than China. Crucial to understanding and interacting with China is a familiarity with its complex and dense history. Red Bishop is Dr. Robin T.W. Yuan’s epic historical fiction based on the extraordinary life of his maternal grandfather\, Rt. Rev. Robin Chen\, China’s last presiding bishop of the Anglican Church. This talk will explain the genesis of Red Bishop\, the back story to this epic historical fiction\, the main elements\, characters\, and events interwoven in this multi-dimensional narrative of Bishop Robin Chen and his family\, 20th century China\, and the Christian experiment.

SUMMARY:The Island of Extraordinary Captives
DESCRIPTION:Book talk. During Hitler’s rise to power in the 1930s\, tens of thousands of German and Austrian Jews escaped and found refuge in Britain. After war broke out and paranoia gripped the English nation\, Prime Minister Winston Churchill ordered that these innocent asylum seeks – so-called “enemy aliens” – be interned. Peter Fleischmann\, who had escaped Berlin on a Kindertransport\, was one such asylum seeker. He was sent to Hutchinson Camp on the Isle of Man\, where he found one of history’s most astounding prison populations: renowned professors\, composers\, journalists\, and artists. Together they created a thriving cultural community\, complete with art exhibitions\, lectures\, musical performances\, and poetry readings. The artists welcomed Peter as their pupil and forever changed the course of his life. Meanwhile\, suspicions grew that a real spy was hiding among them — one connected to a vivacious heiress from Peter’s past. Simon Parkin’s new book The Island of Extraordinary Captives: A Painter\, A Poet\, an Heiress\, and a Spy in a World War II British Internment Camp draws from unpublished first-person accounts and newly declassified government documents to detail this untold story.

SUMMARY:Nina&Irena

According to Lombroso\, this film is a response and a coda to his previous documentary\, White Noise\, for which he spent four-years reporting on the American alt-right. Lombroso will be joined in conversation by Gottlieb and a staff member of The New Yorker after the screening of Nina&Irena to discuss the film\, their experiences\, and the connection to Lombroso’s work on White Noise.
